The Firescreen: A Comedy In Four Acts is a play written by Alfred Sutro and published in 1912. The play follows the story of a wealthy and eccentric Englishman named Sir Hugo Drake, who is known for his love of art and his collection of valuable paintings. Sir Hugo's prized possession is a firescreen that he believes to be a valuable masterpiece, but which is actually a forgery. When Sir Hugo's daughter, Lady Drake, falls in love with an art dealer named Ronald, she convinces him to help her father discover the truth about the firescreen. The play is a witty and entertaining comedy that explores themes of love, deception, and the value of art. Sutro's writing is known for its clever dialogue and engaging characters, making The Firescreen a classic example of early 20th-century British theatre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
